The award reaffirms McLaren Applied’s commitment to gender equality across the engineering industry and are proud to recognise and promote female talent in the world of motorsport engineering.

Head of Motorsport Accounts and former Formula 1 engineer, Richard Saxby said: “Motorsport has traditionally been a male-dominated environment, especially within engineering, so we wanted to be able to celebrate women who are blazing a trail throughout the industry. We want to give this award to raise the profile of women who are making powerful contributions to motorsport and allow their hard work and experience to be recognised. I really look forward to reading the award submissions.”

Nominations are open until 7 November for anyone identifying as a woman and working in motorsport engineering with more than three years’ experience in the industry.
